The objective of this paper is to present the current design and developments of learning environments with a special focus on innovative strategies in learning through technologies. On the background of the latest empirical findings and theoretical conclusions of technology-enhanced pedagogies, an array of creative technologies and practical ideas for harnessing technology in teaching, learning and assessment is discussed. The paper is complemented by the selected findings of a related empirical probe dealing with the use of creative technologies in learning environments, unveiling both the experience and expectations of learners in tertiary, postgraduate and life-long learning. Recognizing the fact that educational institutions, learning environments, and the learners themselves may be incredibly diverse across the learning sector, it is of utmost importance to consider future learning and teaching strategies, and identify the most suitable technological tools empowering educators and enhancing learning in a digital age of knowledge sharing well in advance.
